Fern Britton is
joined for each edition of That's What I Call Television by a
co-host who has their own very special connection
with our 'golden era'.
Des Lynam is best know for his sports presenting, and
being somewhat a
'housewife's favourite'!
It was early in our 'golden era' that Des became
the main presenter of Grandstand and fronted the
programme right through
until 1991. The programme went out against that other classic
Saturday
afternoon sport programme World Of Sport on ITV.
Ronnie Corbett has been best known as one of the Two
Ronnies alongside
his comedy partner Ronnie Barker, their programme ran from
1971 until
1987.
However,
it was between 1981 and 1987 that Ronnie made his greatest
solo performance in Sorry!
as Timothy Lumsden, a 41 year-old still living
at home with his
domineering mother and hen-pecked father.
Ronnie co-hosted our 2007 Christmas
Special.
